Which one of you weenies is the slantsticker in Norrisville, MD??  Been WAY higher than surrounding measurements each time this year.  

I've noticed that, too. I know there are ridges up around that area but still.

Some shots from my morning jebwalk. I got incredibly lucky. I had to go 5 miles SE this morning and the snow was maybe half. It drops off real fast.

And that spotter reported 6”+ on 1/6! Yeah reasonable that they’d be the highest in Harford Co, but they’re much higher than nearby reports like @mappy

Yeah both are suspect. All the good bands stayed to my NW yesterday. Occasionally we got into a band but it didn’t last very long. No way someone to my east measured 4

Maybe measured through the existing snowpack.

Maybe a pile. Definitely had more grass than snow before the storm and what snow remained was a half inch at the most.

I wasn’t in Norrisville this morning but I was near Jarrettsville. No more than 1-2”.

Two closest reports were 1.0” from the public and 1.3” from a trained spotter. Tempted to go with 1.25”
